2020-05-20Documentation: Encourage documentation with code changesPatrick Georgi
The resource allocator woes post-4.12 release showed room for improvement on both discussion and documentation. To encourage this (and encourage reviewers to look out for issues in that space), extend the review guidelines so that they encourage to more clearly document the reason for a change with the change (commit message or our documentation) and also to loop in the mailing list.

2019-08-30Kconfig: Write tmp files into same directory as target filesRaul E Rangel
This removes the need for COREBOOT_BUILD_DIR in Kconfig. Since the original files will be replaced with the tmp file, the parent directory already needs to be writable. Before this change, the tmp files would be created in the CWD (src) if COREBOOT_BUILD_DIR was not specified. BUG=b:112267918 TEST=emerge-grunt coreboot and verified no tmp files were created in the src directory.
